I'm trying to make an image with several trusses of different lengths in it.
 I've set up a script that can make a truss of any length, but reading
through the commands for the POV equivelent of BASIC's "dim" statement, I
didn't anything that seemed right.

I need to be able to store and recall type, length, <ro,ta,te> and
<tra,nsl,ate>.

Thanks for the help.

I think you probably want section 3.2.1.8.1  of the help that deals with 
'Declaring Arrays' .
